Maximilien Rubel
Maximilien Rubel (10 October 1905 in Chernivtsi – 28 February 1996 in Paris) was a famous "Marxist" historian and council communist.
He was educated in law and philosophy in Vienna and Chernivtsi and was influenced by the Astro-Marxist Max Adler. He moved to France in 1931 to study sociology at the Sorbonne, from which he received his Licence-ès-lettres in 1934. He became a French citizen in 1937, and shortly after began publishing the literary magazine Verbe-Cahiers humains, before being drafted into the French Army. Due to his Jewish origins, Rubel lived semi-secretly in Paris under the German occupation of France.
